"Lord Jun, what does she mean by that?"

"...The literal meaning."

"Ah, so she wants to fight me?"

"She's young and vigorous, probably dissatisfied that you preemptively intercepted [Duan Longtou], making her efforts of several days come to naught."

Lord Jun rubbed his temples with a headache.

"How about this, you guys go first, and I'll figure out how to deal with her."

"Alright then."

Anyway, the rewards for [Duan Longtou] will be delivered to the inn after verification, so there's no need to stay here specifically.

Led by the gray-robed person who came to report, Fang Yue and Lin Ling retreated and returned the way they came.

This time, the rank of the guide dropped from white robe to gray robe.

Those Qing Si people merely glanced at them, two unfamiliar faces, and no one came over to greet them.

Fang Yue was enjoying the peace and quiet, but Lin Ling clicked his tongue slightly in dissatisfaction.

"Don't laugh at me, sirs. I have the old to support and the young to raise. This official job is the guarantee of my livelihood, and I can't afford to lose it."

"Ah, I understand, I understand..."

Fang Yue quickly agreed, so as not to embarrass him too much.

"Hey, brother, it's not easy."

Lin Ling patted the gray-robed man's shoulder. "What's your name?"

"Chou Xin, just call me Chou Xin."

Lin Ling looked like an experienced elder brother, raising his head forty-five degrees to look at the sky. The sunlight sprinkled on his face, which hadn't been cleaned for several days, and his sparse mustache had a bit of vicissitudes.

"Chou Xin, have you considered joining a sect?"

Chou Xin: ???

His body stiffened, and he turned his head to look at Lin Ling with a 'subway old man looking at phone.jpg' expression.

As if to say: What does this mean? My Qing Si position is going well, why would I go to a sect?

"Ignore him, Brother Chou Xin, you go and do your own thing. We can recognize the road ahead ourselves."

"...Okay, then be careful on your way."

"Okay."

After leaving the large courtyard, Fang Yue and Lin Ling quickly returned to the inn.

However, they didn't see Lord Han.

After asking around, they learned that Lord Han, having obtained the mist-transformed black robe and reshaped his body, wanted to go around and see the sights.

Before, there were no conditions. He only had a head left and had to be carried by an unreliable 'head-raiser' to move.

Now that he can finally move on his own, he naturally doesn't want to continue to be stuck in the room.

"Then what about Jing Yan?"

"He also said he was going to wander around, taking Little Blood Fight with him."

Fang Yue understood as soon as he heard it. That guy wanted to find some natural treasures that could help Little Blood Fight grow up quickly.

Looking around the inn, in fact, not only Lord Han and the others, but also most of the others in the team were not at the inn.

"With hearts scattered, it's hard to lead the team."
